Matcha has been pretty new to me this year mainly because about three years ago I decided to cut out caffeine entirely and was always a tad nervous to try it out again. Since I have a history of panic attacks and anxiety I learned that caffeine is one of those items that sometimes triggers those anxious feelings to occur.   
   However, when one of my good friends Antonella started a company (yourlixir) with her business partner, that sells the best grade of matcha you can get, I had to try a little bit out. She also assured me that matcha doesnt give you that jittery feeling that regular coffee tends to do, but is a more focused calm energy. She was completely right! I use just a tsp in some warm water and add it to my favorite nut milk and its so yummy and gives me just enough fuel for that afternoon slump.
   I love it so much I started to incorporate it into my baking! Is there a better way to start than Donuts?! If I could have a donut a day for breakfast I would be a happy gal. I LOVE sweets and especially love something a little sweet over savory in the morning.  However, having Dunkin Donuts every day may not be the best choice in terms of your waistline and overall health.
    So...... try subbing in these yummy coconut vegan matcha donuts. I love making these on a Sunday and having them for a quick breakfast on the go during the week, or even in the afternoons as a snack with a cup of tea. These donuts are vegan, gluten and dairy free and insanely delicious!

I never thought there would come a day where I would be making my own bread, BUT here I am baking my own version of the famous California supermarket Erewhonmarket's paleo bread.

I have never actually been to this market, but I am always watching other foodies instagram stories and this bread is SOOO popular, and also SOO expensive. Almost seems too expensive for the amount you are getting, but people buy it because it is that good!

I have to thank @Shuangy_kitchensink for posting to her story after a trip to Expowest the actual ingredients listed on the bread. Immediately I took a screen shot, and went to town in the kitchen trying to re-create this recipe. Since I havent tried the bread from the actual market I cant honestly say it tastes the same, but the ingredients are identical and my version is pretty damn good! (Literally do not even need to add anything on top, its that GOOD)
